              Design you Own Needlework Map: An On-line Class

              Step into the exciting world of needlework mapmaking as coloring effects along with counted and surface embroidery techniques are all combined to produce an original old style needlework map. Each map will be designed with all the fine details found in antique maps: Classic style lettering (including script and flourish), a compass rose, meridian lines, wind symbols, cartouche inserts framing details of the map maker and map, mermaids, sea serpents, whales and any other motifs which would characterize the geographical and historical aspects of your selected region. This class will introduce students to vintage and illusory coloring effects and palettes, layout options, and some of the key components of historically important and valuable needlework maps and pictures. Join me in this unique opportunity to explore the process of creating your own original fully customized heirloom needlework map! Class Information
